With the opening of Pandora – The World of Avatar, Disney has announced a creative way for Guests to help contribute to the Disney Conservation Fund. When Guests enter the land and use the My Disney Experience app, Guests are invited to participate in conservation missions to help protect the habits of at-risk animals. Once Guests complete at least one mission, they will be able to unlock a $10 contribution from Disney Parks. If you just discuss conservation, you’ll be able to contribute $5 through the Disney Conservation Fund.

Starting on June 1, Guests can participate in a Day Cruise Around the World, a new specialty cruise offered daily at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort. Guests will board a pontoon boat at Bayside Marina and sail around Crescent Lake and the World Showcase Lagoon. The boats can accommodate up to 10 Guests. Bagged snacks and soft drinks are included, but additional food and beverage options are available. The cost is $149 per person (plus tax).
